PC Mag Review

Post by rondo »

I have to say I agree with most of the review. At issue for me is the poor/funky highlight recovery, and the lack of an easy side by side comparison.

AS is one of the few tools where you can do comparison edits (forget trying to do that in LR) or pan/zoom into several images.

It says: "...but there's no support for dual monitors..."
This is not accurate.
I am using ASP very satisfactorily with two monitors, putting the Tools Panel (Right pane) and sundry others on my second monitor.

Typical reviewer, spends zero time and writes to his expectations instead of checking products.
